does anyone own this, or have used it?
i went to a seminar last week with larry frank, who is kinda of a old dirty hippy, but very funny

it seemed really cool, but of course the photos are awesome, when taken buy a 40 year pro

I think Groucho had some pics up when last year from one... or maybe it was Mark Barbieri...

Lensbabies are awesome. The muse with a plastic optic does an amazing job of giving a really great toy camera look, a lot like a Brownie with a flipped lens if you angle it just right. The double glass is another favorite of mine. But you have to be willing to part with some control when you use these. They're not for people who want things precise and demand tack sharp images with clarity. They make for really soft, fluid images.

I rented one for a trip this year. It was a lot of fun.
